The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, recently held a closed-door meeting with Senator Abdurrahman Kawu Sumaila and House of Representatives members Kabiru Alhassan Rurum and Aliyu Sani Madaki—all currently serving under the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
Aminu Dahiru, the Senior Special Assistant to the APC National Chairman on Visual Communication and Events, confirmed the meeting via a post on his verified social media account on Tuesday.
According to the statement, the meeting was part of ongoing arrangements for the lawmakers’ anticipated defection from the NNPP to the APC, ahead of the 2027 general elections.
It is worth noting that the lawmakers have been embroiled in a prolonged dispute with the NNPP’s national leader and founder of the Kwankwasiyya movement, Dr. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso.
